History of Russia
Prehistory
History
of
Russia:
Russia is
a giant
country
that
reaches
eastern E
urope and
northern
Asia. After the breakup of the Soviet Union in
December 1991, Russia, once the preeminent
republic of the Union of Soviet Socialist
Republics (USSR; usually known as the Soviet Uni
on), became an independent country.
Russia is a land of superlatives. It is by far the
world’s largest country, covering about double
the area of Canada, the world’s secondlargest
country. It stretches throughout northern Asia
and the eastern third of Europe, spanning 11
time zones and encompassing a diverse range
of ecosystems and landforms, including deserts,
semiarid steppes, deep woods, and Arctic
tundra.

Early History
Early East Slavs
Early
History
of
Russia:
The early
East
Slavs
were the
people
who lived
in the
area which is now Belarus, Russia, and Ukraine.
They began to settle in this area around the 6th
century AD. The East Slavs were divided into
three groups: the Russian, Ukrainian, and
Belarusian.
The first East Slavic state was Rus. It was
founded by the Viking chieftain Rurik in 862.
Rus’ was a powerful state which controlled
much of Eastern Europe. However, it was
destroyed by the Mongols in 1240.
4. Mongol invasion and vassalage
After the fall of Rus’, the Russian principalities of
Moscow and Novgorod emerged as the leading
states in Eastern Europe. In 1480, Ivan III of
Moscow conquered Novgorod, becoming the
sole ruler of all East Slavs. Under Ivan’s
grandson, Ivan IV (also known as “Ivan the
Terrible”), Russia became a great power.
In 1721, Peter I proclaimed himself emperor of
Russia, and his state became known as the
Russian Empire. The Russian Empire reached
its peak under Catherine II (also known as
“Catherine the Great”). By the end of her reign,
Russia controlled much of Europe and Asia.
Kievan Rus’ (882–1283)
Kievan Rus’, also spelled Kyivan Rus’, was a
loose federation of East Slavic and Finnic
peoples in Europe from the late 9th to the mid
13th century, under the reign of the Varangian
Rurik dynasty. The modern nations of Belarus,
Russia, and Ukraine all claim Kievan Rus’ as
their cultural ancestors, with Belarus and Russia
deriving their names from it.
Mongol invasion and vassalage
(1223–1480)
In 1237,
the
Mongols
invaded
Russia,
resulting
in a
period of
a
vassalage that lasted for more than two
5. centuries. The Mongols were nomadic people
from Central Asia who conquered many lands,
including China, Persia, and parts of Europe.
They first invaded Russia in 1223, but they were
driven back by Prince Yuri II of Vladimir.
In 1237, the Mongols returned and conquered
the city of Kyiv. They then proceeded to sack the
city of Vladimir. The Mongols continued their
conquest of Russia, eventually reaching as far
west as Poland and Hungary.
The Mongols ruled Russia through a system of
vassalage, which was a system in which the
conquered people were required to serve the
conquerors. In return for their service, the
Mongols provided protection from other
invaders. The Mongols also allowed the
Russians to keep their own laws and customs.
The Mongol invasion had a significant impact on
Russian history. It resulted in the death or
displacement of millions of people. It also led to
the rise of the Russian Orthodox Church and the
development of the Russian language.
Grand Duchy of Moscow
(1283–1547)
The Grand Duchy of Moscow was a Russian
state that existed from the late 13th century to
the early 18th century. It was the largest and
most powerful state in Russia during that time.
6. Rise of Moscow
The Grand Duchy of Moscow was founded in
1283 by Prince Yuri II of Vladimir. He united the
Russian principalities of Vladimir, Suzdal, and
Novgorod into one state. Moscow quickly
became the dominant force in Russian politics
and culture.
In the 14th century, Moscow annexed the
Khanate of Kazan, making it the largest state in
Russia. In the 15th century, it conquered the
Novgorod Republic and the Khanate of
Astrakhan. By the 16th century, Moscow had
emerged as the preeminent power in Russia.
Under Ivan III (r. 1462–1505), Moscow became
an autocratic state. Ivan IV (r. 1533–1584), also
known as “Ivan the Terrible”, expanded the
territory of the Grand Duchy even further. He
conquered the Khanates of Kazan and Siberia,
making Russia a huge empire. During the Time
of Troubles (1605–1613), Russia.
Rise of Moscow
The rise
of
Moscow
as a
political
power in
the late m
edieval perio
d is one
of the
most
fascinating and complex stories in Russian
history. It is a story of ambition, intrigue, and
betrayal, set against the backdrop of a country
that was in constant flux.
7. The late medieval period was a time of great
change for Russia. The Mongol invasion of the
13th century had left the country in disarray, and
various rival princes vied for control over its
fragmented territory. Into this mix stepped
Moscow, a small citystate that was able to take
advantage of the situation and rapidly expand its
territory.
Moscow’s success was due in large part to the
skill of its rulers, who were able to play off rival
princes against each other. They also benefited
from the fact that Moscow was located on the
trade route between Europe and Asia, which
made it an important economic hub.
The rise of Moscow culminated in the coronation
of its ruler, Ivan III, as the “tsar” (or emperor) of
Russia in 1480. This event signaled Moscow’s
emergence as the preeminent power in the land,
and laid the foundation for the creation of the
Russian Empire.
Ivan III, the Great
Ivan III, the Great was the Grand Prince of
Moscow from 1462 to 1505. He was one of the
most important rulers in Russian history and his
reign saw the transformation of Russia from a
medieval state into an empire. Ivan’s rule was
marked by numerous achievements, including
the conquest of the Khanate of Kazan, the
unification of the Russian lands, and the building
of the Kremlin.

Under Ivan’s rule, Russia emerged as a
powerful force on the international stage. His
policies greatly expanded Russian territory and
influence, and he is often considered one of the
founders of the modern Russian state. Ivan III
was a skilled diplomat and military leader, and
his reign ushered in a golden age for Russia.
Tsardom of Russia
(1547–1721)
The Tsardom of Russia, also known as the
Tsar’s Domain, was a state that existed in
Russia until the Russian Revolution It was
preceded by the Grand Duchy of Moscow and
was succeeded by the Russian Empire.
The Tsardom of Russia was established when
Ivan III, the Grand Prince of Moscow, declared
himself the “tsar” of all Rus. This marked the
end of the MongolTatar yoke over Russia, and
the beginning of Muscovite rule.
Under Ivan III, Russia began to expand its
territory. He annexed Novgorod and then
proceeded to conquer Livonia, Estonia, and
Latvia. By the end of his reign, Russia had
become one of the largest states in Europe.

Russian Federation
(1991–present)
The
Russian
Federation was established in 1991, after the
dissolution of the Soviet Union. Russia is the
largest country in the world, with a land area of
17.1 million square kilometers. The population
of Russia is 144 million people, making it the
ninth most populous country in the world.
11. The Russian economy is the sixthlargest in the
world, with a GDP of $1.3 trillion. The main
industries in Russia are oil and gas, mining,
manufacturing, agriculture, and tourism.
Russia has a long history dating back to the
ninth century. The first Russian state was
founded in 862 by Prince Rurik. Over the
centuries, Russia has been ruled by a number
of different empires and regimes, including the M
ongol Empire, the Tsarist Empire, and the Soviet
Union.
Since 1991, Russia has been a federal republic
governed by a president and parliament. The
current president of Russia is Vladimir Putin,
who has been in power since 2000.
Liberal reforms of the 1990s
In the 1860s, Russia embarked on a series of
reforms that would transform the country. These
reforms, known as the liberal reforms, were
designed to modernize Russia and bring it in
line with Western Europe.
The liberal reforms began with the emancipation
of the serfs in 1861. This freed more than 23
million people from bondage and gave them the
right to own land and property. The
emancipation of the serfs was followed by a
series of other reforms, including the creation of
local selfgovernment, the establishment of trial
by jury, and the introduction of civil rights.
These reforms helped to spur economic growth
and modernization in Russia. However, they
also caused political unrest. The liberals who
supported the reforms clashed with
conservatives who opposed them. This conflict
came to a head in 1917 with the Russian
